Didn't you used to work for Patrice? The black Indus with the blue around the pickguard has haunted me for years.

I love Vigier guitars, I've played several of them at trade shows and have met Patrice a few times. He's so passionate about his product.
The neck is just genius. No need for truss road adjustments, EVER! I think it has an impact on the playability too. The action on the Vigier guitars I have played has been flawless all over the fingerboard, every fret.
I like some of the other features too... their ball-bearing tremolos are really great. Their Surfreter is also really cool although I can't play **** on it. haha.
I've been wanting an Excalibur Custom for a while.

Hmm... Around 10 years ago, there was a regular on here who worked for Vigier. He had a one off yellow Indus.
